If you watched the first season of Bravo’s The Valley, you’re already familiar with the cast — made up of former Vanderpump Rules stars and their friends as they enter the "adulting" phase of their lives while planting roots in the suburbs of Los Angeles. All throughout the series, the cast deals with grown-up issues and life events — from marriage troubles, to parenthood, to professional challenges — with varying degrees of success. 

When does The Valley Season premiere?

Season 2 of The Valley premieres Tuesday, April 15 at 9p ET/PT on Bravo, with episodes streaming next day on Peacock. We can’t wait to see all the drama the crew stirs up this season. 

What will The Valley Season 2 be about?

According to Bravo’s official synopsis, it’s about to get even messier on The Valley: “After a rollercoaster first season, things pick up where they left off and chaos ensues as the group deals with the fallout of long-term relationships dissolving, the rumor mill continuing to run, and friendships fracturing — possibly beyond repair.” 

What are The Valley cast up to in Season 2?

All the cast members from Season 1 are returning for The Valley’s sophomore season. Vanderpump Rules alums Lala Kent, Tom Schwartz, Scheana Shay, and Brock Davies will also pop up in Season 2.

Here’s a rundown on the Bravo stars you need to know, and what they’re up to when the series returns:

Jax Taylor

Brittany Cartwright

Brittany hopes to rediscover herself amidst her separation from Jax while also resisting the urge to forgive and forget Jax's behavior once again. As she adjusts to being a single mother and tries to reform her own identity, Brittany works on prioritizing herself. While Jax is away in the mental health facility, she leans on the group now more than ever. When her friendships with Zack and Kristen are put to the test, Brittany finally reaches her breaking point.
